moops:There are tons of them in Mexico. But if you live in the US, they can't be imported because they don't meet US emissions requirements. They probably don't have emissions control systems at all.

To get one in the US, you have to get someone in Mexico to strip the car completely then stick everything in a container EXCEPT the floor pan and ship it as spare parts. You then buy a 70s era Beetle in terrible shape with no engine but with a Title. You then bolt all the parts in your container and register your 1990s vintage Mexican Beetle as your 1974 US Spec Beetle.

Wow, I'm currently driving a '76 (that was a 1-owner previously to me) that I bought for the kids, but my '68 912 rusted out the torshion bars so now it is my daily driver. I believe it has 280k miles according to the previous owner!
